Against the dazzling backdrop of medieval Venice and the Orient unfolds this opulent tale of exotic adventure of treasure beyond imagining -- and a love story that became a legend. Nothing in Diego's life had prepared him for what he found when he followed Marco Polo to the mysterious East. There, in the vast domain of Kublai Khan, he met the most beautiful girl he had ever seen -- Lotus Flower, whose strange eyes captured his very soul and nearly made him forget the riches he had come to claim. But Lotus Flower would not be Diego's without a struggle, for she was desired by the great Khan himself . . .
